Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Soft. Very flowery. Nasturtiums? Garden bonfires.
Palate
Light to medium. Smooth. Flowery but substantial. Orange blossom honey.
Finish
Spicy, long, dry peaty.
Comment
A surprising amount of peat in this usually very delicate malt.

Dave Broom

Nose
Fragrant, smoke: smoked meats, medicinal, but also flowers and citrus. Great complexity.
Palate
Layers of complex, balanced, flavours. Wonderful weight: thrift, flowers, smoked meat, spice. Precise and balanced.
Finish
Long and slightly dry from the smoke but complex.
